failing to match "===="

[Risto Minev]

Hi,

I am having a nightmare trying to match any number of equal signs.

if this matches:
        else if ( match($0, "----") != 0 ) {
why does not this match:
        else if ( match($0, "====") != 0 ) {
or this:
        else if ( match($0, "\-\-\-\-") != 0 ) {

Appreciate your response,

Kind Regards!
